I have questions in regards to gaining a new assignment. I emailed retention for an updated list of requisitions available. The time frames for reporting (RQRRD) are March2020-April2020. My three year mark at my current station is July. I’m ready for new things. My question is, if I call branch, are these dates too far out to put me on assignment? I called my branch manager in February and He said to call back in May. Any info helps!?

Work it both ways: at the unit level and at HRC. Your branch manager should (emphasis added) take notes of your conversation an use those when working on the assignment process.

You are doing what you need to regarding assignments. However I would go to S1 and formally submit the request while calling Branch. Thank you for your service.

SSG Hall,
The Enlisted Manning cycle will drop end may. When you day you are talking with your retention(career counselor) for available reqs, please understand that if you have the option of duty station as a reup, your career counselor will submit a HOTLINE up to HRC and your branch manager (BM) will respond, Just because you have a list of reqs that doesnt mean they are valid/available each requisition has a code that means something to us as BMs.
